BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cup, and more particularly to a foldable silicone cup.

2. Description of the Prior Art

With the improvement of people's living standards, travels become an important leisure for most people. A water cup is an indispensable article for people to travel. The existing water cups are large in size, and it is not easy to fold the water cups. When people go out, it is very inconvenient to carry the water cups. As a result, people use a big bag to carry these water cups. Accordingly, the inventor of the present invention has devoted himself based on his many years of practical experiences to solve these problems.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is to provide a foldable silicone cup to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

In order to achieve the aforesaid object, the foldable silicone cup of the present invention comprises a foldable cup body and a cap. The foldable cup body includes a cup mouth. The cup mouth has a pull portion. The foldable cup body includes a middle portion, an upper portion, a lower portion, and a foldable configuration. The foldable configuration has a wavy shape. The upper portion and the lower portion have a diameter greater than that of the middle portion. The middle portion is connected with the upper portion and the lower portion by means of the foldable configuration.

Preferably, the foldable cup body is made of a silicone material.

Preferably, two ends of the pull portion have retaining portions, respectively. One of the retaining portions is hingedly connected with a strap.

Preferably, one end of the strap is provided with a hook. The hook is buckled to the other retaining portion.

Preferably, the cap is provided with a power source therein. The cap has a battery compartment therein. The power source is retained and installed in the battery compartment.

Preferably, the cap includes a cap body and a lid. The cap body is connected and mated with the lid.

Preferably, a waterproof ring is provided between the cap body and the lid.

Preferably, an inner side of the cup mouth is provided with a sealing ring.

The beneficial effect of the present invention is that through the middle portion, the upper portion, the lower portion, and the foldable configuration, the silicone cup can be folded for carrying conveniently and saving space. The waterproof ring is provided between the cap body and the lid to ensure that the circuit inside the cap won't be damaged due to water. The inner side of the cup mouth is provided with the sealing ring to provide a sealing effect.
